I pray to jeebus that you cleaned the hell out of that bottle, lol.

Cloning Looper was the thing that initially got me into DIY. The stuff was delicious, but far too hard to come by in the UK, and far too expensive, and I'd seen tonnes of different looper clone recipes so I decided just to go for it. 8~ variations of 10ml testers later and I finally had a recipe that I couldn't tell apart from the original. In fact, I think I prefer it to the original.
I'll never look back. I have over 300ml of different juices that I absolutely love sitting on my shelf and I'm now spoiled for choice, and I don't feel bad tanking through the 15mls at work in a day anymore, because it was so cheap.
This sub rules. You guys rule.
EDIT: I posted the recipe below. Apologies.

Go on ...
Apologies, didn't think anybody would want it. Clones have been done to death. Here it is.
Bavarian cream tpa 2% (standard)
Berry crunch tpa 6% (the main undertone of looper)
Cheesecake (graham crust) tpa 2% (bit more cakeyness)
Fruit rings FW 10% (very important. Fruit circles not interchangeable. Must be FW)
Gummy candy tpa 0.5% (makes the lemon zing)
Lemon meringue pie v1 CAP 1% (rounds out said lemon and removes the pledginess while still keeping it sweet and tart. Also adds a bit more body)
Marshmallow FW 2% (I believe you can use tpa for this as well. I've just been using FW since I had a lot of it. Mouthfeel and body)
Enjoy. Needs at least a week in a cupboard for everything to come together. You can shake and vape and get a good idea but it will be severely lacking in the creaminess and thickness until it's had a good steep.
You can get nice salad dressing glass bottles at the dollar store. I mix 200ml batches and store it in them. They have a nice pour spout that makes is very easy to refill 30ml bottles for on the go. I spray paint them black to keep the light out.
Either I'm drunk or that's brilliant. Honestly, I can't tell, could be both. Salad dressing bottles and spray paint, here I come...
The only thing I made a big batch of was that cereal milk recipe, got a liter of it just getting better and better in my closet :)
